I am trying to find a pic of the MS Mirror Centerpiece in the Spring 2003 Issue. It was a mirror raised on foam board with ribbon on teh bottom and then a vase on the mirror. Does anyone have a pic?? PLEEAAASSSEEEE.......

I don't have the pic, but I actually made those exact ones for my wedding. So let me know if you have any questions about how to make them.

Re: martha stewart mirror centerpieces
this is not the pic, but you can get an idea off it. you place the foam board underneath the mirror and wrap with ribbon to cover the board.

Where did you get the mirrors? I started looking, and it seemed so expensive that I gave up on it..

I heard that you can get them at Home Depot for relatively cheap. Do you have a pic of the centerpiece???

Re: martha stewart mirror centerpieces
I don't have a scanner so I can't show you a picture. This is what I did:
I used a florist for the flowers - I used pale pink peonies instead of what Martha used (ranunculus) because it is much cheaper and my bouquets were all peonies. The florist gave me the mirrors for free to use as they include the mirrors in the cost of their centerpieces. The florist also provided the vase. I made the bases by ordering 16' diameter styrofoam circles (1' thick) off the internet...I wrapped the bases in 1' thick pink satin ribbon from Michaels and then wrapped them again over the pink with 1/4' white ribbon. I held it all to the base by using the pearl-head pins. It was really easy!
Oh, and my hall provided the votive candles - they put 6 on each base.
